The laws and regulations with which institutions must comply continue to grow in quantity and complexity. Additionally, this year’s compliance workshop takes place at a time of deep political polarization and as the country prepares for a presidential election year in 2024. At this historic juncture, colleges and universities will continue to be settings for lively political discourse, as well as the subjects of intense policy debates. Against this backdrop, compliance professionals and campus counsel are more important than ever to protect the institution from legal, financial, and reputational risk, in addition to playing an integral part in carrying out the institution’s mission and ensuring a culture of compliance and integrity.

Join us in Washington, D.C., for this year’s compliance workshop that will provide legal and practice updates on a wide variety of issues crucial to compliance professionals and legal counsel. The workshop will have two separate and concurrent tracks: (1) Compliance Program Administration and (2) Legal and Regulatory Updates. Track 1 will include sessions on:

  • Policy development and management,
  • Campus counsel and compliance officers' partnership in action,
  • Conflicts of interest,
  • Assessing a compliance program, and more.

Track 2 will focus on legal and regulatory updates, including:

  • The ethics of conducting legal work utilizing AI,
  • Financial compliance issues,
  • Free speech,
  • Title IX,
  • Legislative and Regulatory Update with Jonathan Fansmith from the American Council on Education, and more.

Who Should Attend?
This program is at the intermediate-advanced level. Registrants will be presumed to have general knowledge of institutional compliance programs and of issues surrounding institutional compliance. The program is directed to college and university counsel and compliance officers with responsibility for institutional compliance programs and issues. Campus administrators such as risk managers and others with significant responsibility for college and university compliance will also benefit from the program.
